Human Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) Stimulates the In
Vitro and In Vivo Development But Not Commitment of Primitive

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates the
proliferation and restricted differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors into neutrophils. To clarify the effects of G-CSF on
hematopoietic progenitors, we generated transgenic (Tg) mice that had
ubiquitous expression of the human G-CSF receptor (hG-CSFR). In clonal
cultures of bone marrow and spleen cells obtained from these mice,
hG-CSF supported the growth of myelocytic as well as megakaryocytic,
mast cell, mixed, and blast cell colonies. Single-cell cultures of
lineage-negative
(Lin )c-Kit+Sca-1+ or
Sca-1 cells obtained from the Tg mice confirmed the
direct effects of hG-CSF on the proliferation and differentiation of
various progenitors. hG-CSF also had stimulatory effects on the
formation of blast cell colonies in cultures using
5-fluorouracil-resistant hematopoietic progenitors and clone-sorted
Lin c-Kit+Sca-1+ primitive
hematopoietic cells. These colonies contained different progenitors in
proportions similar to those obtained when mouse interleukin-3 was used
in place of hG-CSF. Administration of hG-CSF to Tg mice led to
significant increases in spleen colony-forming and mixed/blast cell
colony-forming cells in bone marrow and spleen, but did not alter the
proportion of myeloid progenitors in total clonogenic cells. These
results show that, when functional G-CSFR is present on the cell
surface, hG-CSF stimulates the development of primitive multipotential
progenitors both in vitro and in vivo, but does not induce exclusive
commitment to the myeloid lineage.
